Hi forum,
yesterday I decided to give corepure64 a try. Up to now I used tinycore 32 bit version.
I installed corepure64 and made it working without problems and today I decided to install some extensions that could be useful.
I have to signal that the only problem I got with the newly installed extension is with file-roller. It is a bit old, but most importantly it didn't start.
launching it fron within aterm it says:
file-roller: error while loading shared libraries: libnettle.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I had to install nettle.tcz to make it working.
Another strange thing: file-roller can be launched only by terminal, the ondemand entry has no effect.
thank you.

Hi alexo
It appears that libarchive.tcz which file-roller.tcz depends on got updated. libarchive.tcz now depends on nettle3.tcz instead
of nettle.tcz, which file-roller.tcz still requires.

Hi Rich,
what do you think about starting file-roller from cli only? Is that anything some one else ever noticed?
-
Hi alexo
Maybe it's a problem with using it with ondemand. Does it work any better if it gets loaded onboot? Another possibility is
an error in the /usr/local/share/applications/file-roller.desktop or the /usr/local/tce.installed/file-roller files.

Hi Rich,
I put it onboot but there is not the icon of the program in wbar after the reboot of Tinycore, so it still remains the console the only way to execute the program.
The first file that you mention does not seem to me to be pertinent with this problem because I found in it only the translations of some text strings of the program in many languages, and the second file contains the following:
#!/bin/sh
gtk-update-icon-cache -q -f -t /usr/local/share/icons/hicolor
glib-compile-schemas /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas

Hi alexo
You initially stated:
... Another strange thing: file-roller can be launched only by terminal, the ondemand entry has no effect. ...
There was no mention of a missing icon. /usr/local/share/applications/file-roller.desktop should have a line that looks like:
X-FullPathIcon=/usr/local/share/pixmaps/file-roller.png

Hi Rich,
you asked me to try to load file-roller onboot and I told you what happens if I do that. In wbar no icon.
I attach the file /usr/local/share/applications/file-roller.desktop.
Hope that it helps.
Thank you for your patience : )

Hi alexo
There are a bunch of entries missing from the .desktop file. I copied the missing entries from an older version of the extension
into the file you provided. I'm not sure the X-GNOME entries are required so I commented them out. If you copy the attached
file to /usr/local/share/applications/file-roller.desktop and then right click on the wbar, I think it will reload the .desktop file
and display an icon.
